Responsibilities

Host live shows on weekends (and occasional fill-in shifts for vacations, holidays, and when someone inevitably loses their voice)
Do fun, tight, personality-filled breaks: pop culture, local stuff, listener interaction
Take listener calls and texts, and actually put them on the air
Execute contests, giveaways, and station promotions without accidentally giving away the station van
Do your own show prep: find relatable, local, and timely content instead of just reading the internet cold

A natural, authentic on-air sound, less 'robot DJ,' more 'fun friend in the car.'
Ability to follow a format clock and still sound like a human being
Basic board-op skills are great, but if you're inexperienced and willing to learn quickly, we'll teach you
A sense of humor, thick skin, and willingness to take direction from programming

Preferred

Experienced talent: prior on-air, podcasting, or media background is a big plus
Familiarity with Northeast Wisconsin is a bonus… knowing how to say 'Oconto' helps
